Woman dies after falling into recycling bin

A WOMAN died after falling head-first into a recycling bin and was only found when her husband came home from work.

Sheila Decoster, 62, had become stuck in a position where she was unable to breath and was probably inside the bin for several hours before she was found, a coroner in Toledo, Ohio said.

Her husband Richard saw her legs sticking out of the 64-gallon container that sits alongside their porch.
